The next generation of culinary artisans are changing up the industry. These artisans have a whole new approach to reaching and satisfying the next generation consumer. In this podcast we will explore chefs and artisans from around the world diving into their story and passion.

In this episode of Chef AF, I chat with Executive Chef Dennis Vanterpool is the Executive Chef of The Ritz-Carlton Reynolds, Lake Oconee about how he infuses the resort’s cuisine with soulful, worldwide flavors and combines traditional southern flavors with flavors from his family and culture.

Vanterpool originally from the U.S. Virgin Islands says he always had a passion for cooking and becoming a chef. He talks about how his mother worked in the hospitality industry and that inspired him to follow in her footsteps. Vanterpool attended Johnson & Wales University to study Culinary Arts and has cooked at several hotels including the Marriott Frenchman Reef and The Ritz-Carlton, Amelia Island before he went to The Ritz-Carlton Reynolds, Lake Oconee. Vanterpool says, “ I've traveled, I've done task force at 14 different Ritz-Carlton as well, just learning and widening my knowledge as far as what the brand is all about.”

Vanterpool was able to work his way up the ranks and has held several positions within the kitchen, which has given him a better connection to his team as executive chef. He has shared his story with the team and the message that hard work pays off. He adds, “I believe in getting out there, working in different kitchens, strengthening and making yourself more reliable and more versatile.”

Vanterpool likes to explore new cuisine, cultures and combining unique flavors to create a unique guest dining experience. He also creates an experiential dining experience for his guests with table-side plating, unique dishes and more.
